This cannot possibly hold up in court. You cant just advertise a product and then be like “*but actually we might be lying about some or all of these things”??? What the fuck are you selling then
Send us $1300 and we will send you… something?
Or not. They could just as well not send anything at all and still meet the standards of that label.
1.3k dollar

Imagine getting a sale from a storefront you didn’t consent to being listed on, with an inaccurate description of your product.
Didn’t Uber eats do this same thing with small restaurants?
Do they know what “strive” means?
probably the same way I strive to get a dog as a cat person
I bet the LLM wrote that too
Was just arguing about the usefulness of AI as a tool with someone on here, and he said that AI consistently making mistakes is a great way to improve critical thinking skills, because it challenges you to figure it out on your own after AI fails.
So what I’m saying is, that was an absolute rubbish take, and shit like this is going to be the downfall of the internet. The internet was such a wonderful, useful tool, and now look at how they massacred my boy 😞
In case anyone was wondering, it’s Best Buy
of course it is.
I recently ran into this issue with a coffee pot. I was specifically hunting for a coffee pot with an adjustable temperature warmer. Ordered one that specifically stated that in the description, only to receive a coffee pot that did not have that feature. Checked the model number on the box versus the listing, and it’s the same. Then I saw the fine print: we are not responsible for inaccurate product information.
dang I learn something new
What country? In many, this is straight up false advertising and you’re entitled to a refund.
At their expense for shipping, no less. Nothing that a charge back won’t fix - with all the evidence ready to go) https://www.accc.gov.au/consumers/problem-with-a-product-or-service-you-bought/repair-replace-refund-cancel
US. Thanks for the helpful info!
we are not responsible for inaccurate product information.
I have half a packet of mints in my car. Going to put them up on eBay and sell them as immortality drugs. Well see how that works out.
They are absolutely responsible for that, fuck em
Too fucking right, send the fucker back
So glad I did not try and get that English degree
Name and shame. Send the link so we can blast this bullshit.
They can go fuck themselves.
Artificial Imbecility.
HAHAHA holy shit!!
Average Amazon experience these days (stop buying from them, enshitification is strongly progressed there)
I try but I semi frequently buy things that are obnoxiously niche, VGA to HDMI connector being the last one. But also I probably buy one or two things a year at most so there’s that.
It’s often pricey now, too.
I’m like 95% sure a 360 degree hinge isn’t even possible, without the thing connected to that hinge being paper thin.
Technically they’re not a single 360° hinge. They’re actually two 180° hinges that are very close to each other with a short link. I’ve got one right here.
that was like a puzzle how to make a hinge swing to and paste 360, but it would be past 360 degrees if the hinge was attached to rubber or sting.
I was gonna say I thought I remembered some of the lenovos doing it, but after poking around I’m pretty sure they only do like 300º instead
I hate these. Super fragile hunge and I never see any laptop or tabtop used like that
I had one with a similar hinge and it never felt fragile. Of course I never tried to use it like in the picture, that just seems silly.
There’s some “2-in-1 laptops”, which you can fold over fully:
The keyboard disables when you do that, so that you can hold it like a tablet.
But yeah, as someone else said, it still isn’t actually one hinge that goes 360°, but rather two hinges chained together.
Your image is broken for me
Ah yeah, damn, I put a different one in.
lemmy.ml has an automatic image proxy, which is in theory really cool, because it prevents requests from going out to all kinds of webpages, but sometimes it fails to process the image and I can only check after I’ve hit “Reply”…
It’s fixed now, but that sucks.
I really thought the way this would shake out is what the end user would own all the assistant chatter and the mistakes it made and businesses would generate easily machine parsable shit for YOUR assistant to parse to make it easy for your agent to both inform you and lessen the friction for the actual sale eg lenovo hp dell etc would provide machine parseible specs and you would conversationally find an item and end up with it in a cart but the last step would be human crafted UI where you would agree to buy exactly what it was you were buying and you were responsible for reading it because THAT not your prior chat with YOUR agent was what they were responsible for.
Truth in advertising was killed off in the 80’s… They can basically say whatever they want now and little ever gets done.
